8 leggings that will actually keep you warm this winter

You may have created a hygge wonderland at home, but in order to get sweaty (and social) you’re probably going to have to step out into the seasonal tundra—a lot. Whether you’re braving the elements for a very brisk outdoor run or just speed-walking to your well-heated indoor fitness class, you need a legging that can stand up to winter.

If you’ve ever attempted the task before, you know the basic rules of cold-weather bottoms: Ditch any and all mesh, save the cutouts for spring, and don’t even think about cropped tights (your poor ankles!). But have you ever considered trying made-for-winter leggings?

Made with seamless stitching to lock in warmth and lined with oh-so-warm fabrics, these styles won’t just help you survive the cold—they’ll keep you toasty.
